The Issue of Limited Atonement

The effects and scope are congruent or in harmony. For instance it was not just Hebrew people that had their sins purged by Christ, but some Gentiles as well in other locations in the earth.
There is nothing there that specifies Jew or Gentile. Paul is talking to both Jewish and Gentile Christ followers, and He says that Jesus didn't die just for Christ followers (us, our sins), but He died for the sins of the WHOLE WORLD. There is no limit to "THE WHOLE WORLD". It is all of everyone who has ever been or will ever be born.
 
The limit of it's effect does not limit it scope.

If I said to all 7 million people in Atlanta that anyone who visited my house would receive a new car at no cost and only three people showed up to get the car, that does not in any way limit the scope of the offer. It only limits the number of people who benefit.
great analogy
 
He says that Jesus didn't die just for Christ followers (us, our sins), but He died for the sins of the WHOLE WORLD. There is no limit to "THE WHOLE WORLD". It is all of everyone who has ever been or will ever be born.
Still the effects of Christ Death harmonize with the whole world. The effects are their sin and guilt is done away.
 
No matter how you slice it, the ones Christ died for All their sins have been purged away, with the guilt. They can't die in their sins. They are legally saved from the penalty of sin. They legally have eternal life From 6:23

Heb 1:3 is in my mind

Does not5 say that and that is what I broke down for you.
 
Im breaking it down to you. Its a fact that The ones Christ died for it purged away the guilt of and their sins, then He sat down at the right hand of God.
Good, He deserved the rest.

It is given, on behalf of Christ Phil 1:29

29 For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

Since He purged away their sins, its given them to believe on Him for that.
That verse does not mean that faith is given. The thing in which we have faith (Jesus Christ) was given. Faith is our response to Him. All have been given the opportunity to believe in Him, but not all choose to believe. Not all who believe in Him suffer for His sake. Your eisegesis is faulty.
